Night Driving in Small Towns – 8.14.2008 @ Athens PopFest

Stuck in LAX for a few hours before heading back to Denver, so I’ll take advantage of the downtime for another PopFest post. (A shame that I’ll be boarding/taking off right around Obama’s speech, and will have to catch it on a rerun later.)

I’m a sucker for both americana and southern accents, so it’s no surprise that I thoroughly enjoyed the set from Night Driving in Small Towns. The intimate setting of The Flicker Theatre added to this enjoyment. The tiny venue seemed to be no larger than a master bedroom…the perfect sit-down opportunity after spending the last four hours standing over at Little Kings. :)

    Hey Lance, I just wanted to drop you a line to thank you for your efforts putting up these live recordings. I hadn’t heard of your site until Mike Marchant shared your wonderful recording of his DPUMS set. And yes, I’m digging on some of the PopFest events, as that’s a weekender I’ve always wanted to go to, but epically fail to do so every year.

    Anyway, thanks for your contribution to our collective listening pleasures.
